Which of the following expressions is a perfect-square trinomial that can be written as the product of two identical binomial factors?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(x^2+10x+25\)

The direct answer is A: \(x^2+10x+25=(x+5)^2=(x+5)(x+5)\). Use the identity \(u^2+2uv+v^2=(u+v)^2\). Here, \(u=x\) and \(v=5\), so the first term is \(x^2\), the last term is \(5^2=25\), and the middle term is \(2(x)(5)=10x\). All three parts match exactly. In B, the last term is 20 rather than 25, so it is not this perfect square. C is a difference of squares, not a trinomial or a square of one binomial. D has the correct-looking first and last terms, but its middle term should be 10x, not 5x. A common confusion is checking only the first and last terms; the middle term must also equal twice the product of the square roots.
